[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 997478, member: 2426"] Something else I thought about, but not being a lawyer, I don't know how it would work. FSU has asked that their notice to leave the ACC be entered and be backdated to August of 2023. When the venue is finally settled, could the ACC submit to the court that they accept FSU's notice to leave, but only dispute the date of the notice? Could the court decide that FSU has entered notice to leave the ACC and that the effective date would either be August of 2023 or December of 2023 depending on the decision of the court? Could the ACC acquiesce to the backdating, and just ask the court to give FSU what it wants on that particular point? If they did so, could FSU do anything to prevent the court from entering a judgement that FSU has withdrawn from the ACC? FSU asked for that specifically. If the ACC agreed to it specifically, why would the court do anything except enter it as a decision? It seems to me that it would hurt FSU's negotiating power. It wouldn't be FSU arguing about potential results of potential actions. It would only be FSU fighting to not pay the amounts that FSU themselves stated in court filings would be due. With regard to the timing, most reasonable sports journalists that I have read have been saying that 2030 or so was the time frame for teams to leave the ACC. The GOR hit would be much less, even manageable. The ability to get a full share will be much higher since the Big10's contract runs out in 2030. If FSU is able to reach a settlement, they will still make less money than the rest of the ACC for about six years. Acting now makes the settlement larger, and the length of time making less money longer. If they are going to join the Big10, they could wait five more years to announce. Pay the entire withdrawal fee. Pay a settlement for the GOR that is left. They would make more money between now and then. They would pay less of a settlement to the conference, even if they didn't fight and paid full amounts at that point. They would also immediately make more money in 2030. If it is only getting out of the ACC as soon as possible as you say, it is going to cost FSU a boatload of money in settlement and lost revenue vs just waiting a few years. Plus in the next few years, there are things happening outside of the control of the ACC that could eliminate the need to take any legal action at all. [/QUOTE]
